New Sharing Buttons...

You may notice that I've now managed to get the sharing buttons to appear at the bottom of my posts. I thought they were there, but eventually had to go diving into HTML code to get them to appear! Anyway, this should make it easier for you to share my posts if you feel inspired.

Thank you all for being such devoted readers!

New Feature

Today I'm trying an experiment. I've added a new gadget in my left navigation bar with a list of popular posts in my archive. I hope this will give visitors a nice sampling of what people are hoping to find when they visit TalkToYoUniverse, and encourage them to spend time exploring the site. If you haven't read the posts, feel free - I hope you enjoy them.

A friend's blog

I'd like to point out that my friend, Dave Steffen, has just started doing reviews on his blog, here. He's put a great deal of thought into these essays, and has for example a really interesting point of view on the Wizard of Oz story. So check it out!

For all of you curious about writing and publishing

My friend Janice Hardy, whom I have mentioned here before, just started a blog called "The Other Side of the Story" - so I thought I'd recommend it and give you the link:

http://storyflip.blogspot.com

She's got all kinds of insights on writing, querying, agents, and other various aspects of the process from writing your book to getting it published. She's also got some great links there to blogs about publishing.

So go check it out, and enjoy.

Come, Follow

I just learned about this new "followers" function on blogspot, thanks to my friend Ann Wilkes. So for those of you who visit here a lot, you can sign up to follow if you like, and your name will appear here on the page. Now I'll have to go looking around and find my own favorite blogspot blogs to follow!

Makes me think of that song about the greenwood tree...
